Condition

The board is slightly warped but appears sound. The paint surface is slightly dirty. There is minor frame abrasion to the lower right corner and both the left and upper inner frame edges. UV light reveals no apparent signs of retouching, however an opaque layer of varnish prevents further examination. Some pigments fluoresce under UV. Held in gold painted and cherry coloured wooden frame. Unexamined out of frame.
